Abstract:

When the Naval Research Laboratory undertook the development of a mobile ground facility for guidance and performance analysis of guided missiles, it was recognized that the basic elements of such a system could be uniformly applicable to several different types of guidance and to different types of missiles. The development of the Lark SP-1M guidance equipment has demonstrated that with appropriate objectives at the time of project inception, one apparatus can be built to serve successfully a multiplicity of guidance systems without compromising the apparatus for any one function and without significant complication beyond that required to perform any one function well. The resulting potentially wide application in the missile guidance field has given the equipment unusually high utility as a research tool.
